In this way, we have tentatively finalized the direction of action against the fallen apostles during this period of time, but the specific implementation details still need to be studied by the expert team of the headquarters - such an important action cannot be made casually , but Sandora and I don't need to participate in those minutiae matters anymore.
However, everyone knows that this kind of suspicious action can produce very limited effects: one cannot regard one's enemies as fools.
All the illusions we have made are to make the fallen apostles think that the mysterious knowledge they suddenly acquired was the "mistake" of the new empire rather than the latter's deliberate effort, so that they will think that they can rely on technology at home as usual The tree has come to surpass us, but as long as there are enough cautious and careful guys among them, they will immediately become suspicious if they find that their camp has a tendency to be "guided" by the imperial government, and they will not stay at home no matter what.
Therefore, we must do our best to speed up the transformation of those mysterious materials, and strive to transform them from knowledge in the database into soldiers armed to the toenails in the shortest possible time.
First of all, everyone has a consensus: to restore all the production capacity of the Celestial City as soon as possible - this should be another advantage of us besides being "prepared". Empire production base. Although the capital of the Fifteen Heavens District is only a fragment of more than one light-year left after the catastrophe, it is thankful that it retains a large number of imperial facilities. For a new empire that is now being built from scratch. The remaining production base there is still a large amount of wealth. Isn’t there a saying that being attacked by death is better than being attacked... Ahem, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and the production potential of the Celestial City is almost equal. The total production capacity of Shadow Space since its four-year construction.
And after the Celestial City has basically resumed operation, it should be considered to build replicas of the Celestial City—the production base of the mysterious system—in various governing areas of the capital universe. These production bases can be built together with the existing space bases of the empire, or even mixed directly! In the words of my elder sister. We must quickly change our views and habits, and immediately adapt to the fact that the technological side of the empire is about to occupy half of the sky. I am very confident about this: the powerful talents of the Apostles of Xiling make them unmatched in terms of "adapting to the new environment" efficiency, among other things, look at that bastard Xi Carolina...
In fact, when it comes to how to adapt to the rising empire spellcasters, those empire veterans don’t have to worry at all—I’m referring to the 300 commanders who came with Pandora back then, and their respective old subordinates, these veterans came from the old fifteen sky area. Sleeping tens of thousands of years ago until Gaia awoke, they fought alongside the Empire's spellcasters long ago. It's just that this part of memory and experience was sealed because of the separation of concepts. Now with the fusion of the two parts of the mother star, they have recovered these memories. They are very familiar with everything in the mysterious department, and they can cooperate smoothly with the latter without training. Those who really need to work hard to adapt are the newly created Xiling apostles since the first year of recovery. Their memory banks were newly compiled after the establishment of the new empire central database. There is no "sealed memory" in it, for them. Except for Raven and Alaya, all the spellcasters of the spirit book are strangers. Even if the relevant information is directly input into their memory core, it will take time to transform those things into combat experience and instinct.
Of course, there are legal units in the empire's servant army, such as the Azeroth Shaman Brigade and other strange units, but these units cannot be compared with the situation mentioned above. On the high-end battlefield, their strength is still It cannot be counted as "fighting side by side" with the Xiling Legion, it can only be counted as a group of foreign aid, and the experience accumulated when fighting with them is completely useless to the Xiling Ji spellcaster.
Several senior military officers in the lecture hall were discussing the issue of combat deployment. Although their topic was started by me and Sandora, I was still drowsy, so I turned my head and waved to Sivis, thinking Ask questions about things you don't quite understand.
"Your Majesty, what are your orders?" Sivis bent down and asked in a low voice. As a result, I faintly smelled an almost indistinguishable fragrance, and I was stunned: "Eh? You still use perfume?"
Although it is not appropriate to ask this question in such a serious place, I am really curious. If it is someone else, it is okay to say, but Sivis's character...she is the most serious and meticulous person in the headquarters. , It is even said that everything in her dormitory is arranged according to a logarithmic function. Could it be that such a sister who is made of special materials also uses cosmetics
Sivis certainly didn't expect me to ask this question, so he was stunned for a moment, and said embarrassingly after two seconds: "In my spare time, I go to Asida and Asidora's to help manage the flower shop—the place is almost occupied by them. It’s turned into a haunted house. It’s probably because of the smell it picked up there.”
Me: "...the two sisters...forget it, let me ask you something about the construction of a mysterious base. Storm Commander is a hybrid apostle, and you probably know about these things. With the existing things in the empire, they can be built in large quantities. Is that kind of base?"
"Of course, you only need to upgrade the existing Xiling hosts once." Sivis blinked, "Xiling hosts are general-purpose builders that have evolved and transformed over the years, and they were born to undertake all imperial facilities. The construction and maintenance work, of course, also includes the construction of various basic units of the mysterious system."
"Eh... something that builds the mysterious system?" I looked into Sivis's eyes with an unclear expression on my face, "Such as those rune towers, magic energy crystals, arcane focus rings, etc.? Can bubbles be made?"
"It seems that you have a lot to learn." Sandora glanced at me with a smile in the corner of her eyes, "Let me tell you some basic things—although I just recovered these memories."
Next, Sandora explained to me some common sense of the mysterious department that I urgently need to know, and I realized one thing: I am already quite familiar with the technology side of the Xiling Empire. But I know almost nothing about its mysterious side, and even worse, I have already developed preconceived inertial thinking about the two, such as thinking that the Xiling host is a high-tech thing, and the mysterious system is difficult to compare with the former. Hooks and the like, but in fact... Xiling mainframe is a hybrid unit.
Although the group of mass-produced bubbles has always behaved like pure high-tech products, in fact they should have two kinds of knowledge at the same time, all Xiling hosts. You can use mathematical models based on precise science to process information, and you can also use fuzzy and information mapping (it is said that these two things are the most common theoretical tools used by the apostles of the mysterious department when dealing with everything in the world) to calculate Runes and secret arts, in fact, from a higher point of view, these two functions are completely the same thing-this involves an ultimate world view, information theory, or information theory. Presumably on this theory. Everyone is familiar with it. In the eyes of Xiling researchers and the gods, everything derived from the void. including the actual substance. Energy that is difficult to observe intuitively, as well as abstract concepts, are all collections of information, and the difference is only in their form of expression. The so-called "truth of the world", to put it bluntly, is the knowledge to fully understand all these information or information and manipulate it according to certain methods. Technology on the technology side is accustomed to using precise mathematical models and a "gradual method" based on gradual research to manipulate information in the world. And achieve linear development. The technology on the mysterious side is almost the opposite. They figured out the easy way to control that information first, and then they started looking at why it was possible to do so. Finally, sublimate the poor control skills into real secret art knowledge, and then try another "simple method" discovered because of this, which is similar to a kind of nonlinear research. The two are like lighting a fire (on the premise that you know how to make a fire). The technology side first understands the three elements of combustion, and then accurately allocates fuel and ignition equipment to figure out various thermodynamic and chemical knowledge. In the end, the fire was successfully ignited, and it was logical to know all the technologies related to flame burning; the mysterious side lit the fire first, and then began to think about why the fire could burn, and gradually figured out all the relevant knowledge, and finally based on what they learned from the fire To "ignite" the next set of "flames" and think about the next set of problems. Of course, this example is not appropriate enough, it can only be used to compare the different ways of thinking and worldviews of the mysterious apostles and the technological apostles, but the reason is the same: no matter which method is used, in the final analysis, it is for all things in the world. The process of controlling basic information.
As for Xiling hosts, they are essentially a powerful computing device. Under the premise that both technology and mysterious things can be attributed to different forms of information, they can process things on any side.
In fact, I should have thought of this a long time ago—the Xiling brood, when this kind of thing first appeared in front of my eyes, it behaved so differently. The pyramid-shaped shape is a structure between the science department and the mystery department. It is quite different in style from those large arsenals and war factories, and its internal structure is almost entirely composed of crystals. It is very different from the factories or starships full of various pipelines and advanced equipment in the impression. These characteristics actually show that the Xiling host has two completely different characteristics of technology and mystery.
"The original researchers used the crystal amplification technology of the mysterious department as the material basis, and the precise information reconstruction technology of the science and technology department to compile and manufacture the working program and related modules of the Xiling host, and combined the two to produce the Xiling host. This kind of soul with amazing load capacity eventually produced this hybrid type of special apostle, and soon, this unit became the main builder of all the infrastructure of the empire," Sandora said, "so we don't have to worry about how to Build those mysterious facilities—just leave it to the host. By the way, Ah Jun, don’t you think that the buildings in the Celestial City are all built in a completely independent way? Do you think that the construction team under Aurelia is All died in the catastrophe, so the production line construction technology of the Celestial City is lost?"
I thought about it, and nodded awkwardly: "Actually... I really thought so at first. Of course, I don't worry about it now."
Because there are so many things to be arranged after the fusion of the parent star, when we came out of the headquarters, the sun was almost setting, and I felt a little confused—the main reason was that Sandora made up half a day of class. After coming out of the gate, letting the cold wind blow outside made me feel better.
Sivis walked with us. She seems to be in a good mood: it's not easy to see, because most of the time Sivis doesn't show any obvious emotion on her face, but after knowing her for a long time, I can feel a little emotion from the adjutant's sister.
"You look very happy," I said casually, "Well, the recovery of the mother planet is indeed one of the few good news recently."
"It's not just that." Sivis said, with a calm smile on his always meticulous face, "Aurelia used to be a comrade in arms of my subordinates who fought side by side, and we were like sisters. She is Alai General Yeh's aide-de-camp and chief assistant researcher, and his subordinates are General Pandora's aide-de-camp and..."
"External thinking circuit..." I agreed, and was pinched by Sandora secretly, so I quickly changed my words. "Ahem, I know. You are still Pandora's think tank. Probably such a position. In this way, it is really impossible for you and Aurelia to be unfamiliar."
Sivis narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the sunset gradually approaching the horizon: "Your Majesty, although this is very abrupt...but..." she said, she turned around suddenly, gave a standard military salute like a textbook, and then deeply Bow deeply: "Thank you for bringing them back. Otherwise, I'm afraid we wouldn't even remember that we once had such a group of comrades. This kind of joy of losing and regaining is bestowed by you. When the memory is restored, half of them almost Overwhelmed with emotion…”
"Uh. Cough cough, okay, okay, this really doesn't fit your personality," I froze for a moment, but quickly realized that I lifted Sivis's shoulders with Sandora, "To be honest, you It surprised me when it came out of nowhere."
Sivis smiled awkwardly, and seemed to realize that she had done something that was not in line with her usual "competent, calm, and unsmiling" character, but she couldn't see the slightest regret on her face, she just took a deep breath After a while: "Then, Your Majesty, this subordinate will carry out what you just arranged."
After saying this, Sivis saluted Sandora and me again, then turned and walked back to the Shadow Fortress.
"Four years ago, I always thought that the apostles of Xiling had weak feelings." Seeing Sivis's handsome back fading away, I muttered, and Sandora looked over with a smile: "Now?"
I shrugged my shoulders: "Don't talk about it now, this impression has collapsed since I met you, just now it collapsed again when I was idle."
Sandora smiled and didn't say a word. She just followed me and walked slowly on the street where the sun was sinking. The streets in the military area are always quieter than those in the public area, so many times, Sandora and I always used to take a walk in the nearby streets after finishing our work in the Shadow Fortress. Qianqian didn't understand the military, and Lin Xue was too lazy to listen to the officers' reports, otherwise she would definitely not be able to keep her exclusive time alone like this.
"It is said that Bubbles is planning to create a star to replace the simulated sun in the sky," Sandora looked at the sunset at the end of the horizon, with the corners of her mouth slightly upturned, "Her daily life Life is quite rich.”
"She? I'm tossing around. After listening to the story of Houyi shooting the sun last time, I wanted to hang ten suns on the shadow city, but my sister knocked her head for a long time." I said casually, and suddenly saw that Ben had fallen into the horizon The setting sun suddenly jumped up a few times, jumped out again - and then moved down again, as if someone was pushing it back and forth.
Sandora: "... Probably Bubble is on the opposite watch."
"...I understand why she wants to create a real star instead of this simulated sun, and she knows her own stink."
Unknowingly, Sandora and I found ourselves at the end of this street, and in front of us was a small shop with a lazy and leisurely atmosphere. Behind the not-so-large but bright window was a display of The exquisite pastry, a fragrant and sweet smell wafted out from the gap of the window, one smelled it... Sylvia spilled something again.
The mysterious dessert house located in the shadow fortress military area is a small world of a certain silver mole. I didn't expect that we would walk here subconsciously this time.
"Go in and have a seat." Sandora smiled and glanced at me, but she had already pushed open the glass door of the dessert room first, without any intention of giving me a choice. The wind chimes hanging at the door gave out a series of sweet chimes, and then a vibrant female voice came from next to my ear: "Welcome!"
A silver-haired girl in a waiter's uniform stood in front of her, holding a plate in her hand, with a happy smile on her face. I glanced at her and asked directly, "Raven 001? Come to Sylvie again." Ya help?"
"Wow! I've been recognized!" The lively and eccentric raven exclaimed a little. It seemed that he wanted to give a military salute, but then he remembered what I had said before, that he did not perform tasks in an informal setting. It's best not to have so many troublesome etiquettes, so I simply bowed to Sandora and me, "Good afternoon, Your Majesty! How did you recognize me?"
"Ah, it's Chen—welcome—come—" Before I could answer, Sylvia's slow voice came from behind the counter not far away, so I pointed to the person who was coming from over there as if waking up from a big dream. Sylvia, who was walking slowly, said to Raven 001: "Look, the real Sylvia will not react until this time, and then I have to wait for three minutes before she remembers to prepare drinks for the guests. You're thinking too fast."
Raven 001 stuck out his tongue, and floated towards the counter like a gust of wind: "Wait a minute, I'll go prepare some drinks for your two Majesties!"
Sandora and I sat down by the window where we are used to, and called Sylvia over. Now that we are here, let's have a chat. RQ
